Lil's Pad

Well, the puppy/con situation is sort of sorted, in that the breeders are keeping my boy for an extra two weeks so I can go to Eastercon (but we won't be staying Monday night, as originally planned - and I really need to phone the Hotel and let them know) and we have arranged a new cat sitter and for Draco to go into Kennels - we will pick him up on our way to Lincolnshire to pick up the puppy.

Meanwhile, having been to see our local practice nurse, it looks like my blood pressure is getting out of hand again, and I am currently taking readings morning and night prior to another session which will no doubt result in new and different medication. Two days after that I go into London for a session with the Stress and Health study people... There are other checks I need to have done, but everything is happening at once, so some of those can wait.

I have two long posts in production which have stalled, as well as piece of pure crack fan fiction which I really must type up.

Not happy with the BBC for giving up half F1 after all that struggle to get it, but it was nice to see Jenson win in Oz. Good race, too.

Thursday week is when I have to spend the afternoon being poked and measured and vampired in the name of the biggest and longest running health study ever commissioned (heck, I've been on it for 27 years... I'll mention it to Ina, though.
